Tears flow gently
Beneath a moonlit sky
For a bittersweet epiphany
Is the reason why I cry

Nine years ago you said to me
Always yours and always mine
And we dreamed a life collectively
Endless nights infused with wine

Remember the time that you said to me
We’ll grow old and never part?
When you said you would always be there for me
Side by side, one blended heart

Now here we are
Two distant stars
Shared pasts
Fading into dark

You were my greatest fire
That burned into the night
Now all I have are ashes
Of a love that may or might have been
And still, I dream
And I wonder
While I wander
Across a timeline of potential
Sometimes blissful, sometimes thunder
Sometimes alternate realities where I’m replaced by another

My heart, it wonders
Beneath a sky, obsidian painted
Does she love you more than I did?
Is your story just as splendid?
Is it true your heart is mended?
Are you truthful or pretending?
Are you joyous or depending?
Do you laugh into the night no matter if the world was ending?

If yes or no
I hope it’s so
I hope your heart is full of love
And you prefer the path you chose

And as for me
Let’s wait and see
Although the seasons come and go
You sometimes greet me in my dreams
These memories
They stay with me
The ashes of a burning fire
That lives inside
Eternally
